KILLED BY CARS Awful Death Overtakes Jacob Wise at Cass Lake Early This Morning. CAUGHT BY WHEELS WHILE CRAWLING UNDER TRAIN. Both Legs Broken, Head Badly Crushed and Death Came Before " Regaining Consciousness. Jacob Wise, a section man in the employ of the Great North- ern at Cass Lake, came to an awful death in the Great North- ern yards at Cass Lake this morning shortly after 6 o’clock. While trying to crawl under a train Wise was caught by the wheels, both legs were crushed and broken and he sustained severe injury in the head which caused his death half an hour | after the accident and before he had regained consciousness. Wise lives on the south side of - the track at Cass Lake and this “morning about 6 o’clock he left his home to go to work. He went up town and in returning on his way to the section house he attempted to crawl under a string of cars, which were being handled by a switch engine. The cars were- standing when he started under, close to the front set of trucks. The engine started the string suddenly and before he could save himself the wheels had caught him and pinioned him to the track. He was found a few moments later, mangled and unconscious. Several cars had passed over him and one limb was nearly severed. Wise was about fifty years of age and had lived at Cass Lake and been employed by the Great Northern for some time. He leaves a wife and two sons, The funeral services will be held at Cass Lake tomorrow, GETS A PATENT Bemidji Jeweler Awarded U. 8 Patent For Jeweler's Re- pair Tool.

The re- port of the state chemist on the latest-analysis-of-city-water was read. [t was received yesterday morning.

The council in- structed the recorder to adver- -tise for pipes ‘for water mains and for a new pump. The state chemist’s report while pronouncing the water from the new well as beyond r proach recommended: an cc sional analysis as a precaution- ary measure. Former Schoolmates Wedded At Lake Alice After Twenty-five Years of Separation. Last Wednesday at Lake Alice, near Walker there occurred a wedding the preliminaries to which were something of a ro- mance, The principals were Mrs. Myra A. Terrell, of Post- ville, Towa, and Alvin W. Stowell, postmaster at Lake Alice. The Walker Pilot says: There is something of the ro- mantic connected with the wed- ding, The bride was Mrs. M. A. Terrell, of Postyille, Towa. She is 44 years old and Mr, Stowell is 55: They were schoolmates together in Iowa and grew up to- gether, butit isnot on record that there was any lovers’ quar- rel and a parting. In course of time Mr, Stowell left Iowa and the young lady became Mrs. Terrell. She has now been 2a widow for some timeand carried in her arms as she landed from the train a child two or three years old. Twenty-one years passed be- tween the day they last saw ‘each other and their meeting in Walker on Wednesday, Some time ago a correspondence was opened up between themn and thé courtship was carried on through the medium of Uncle Sam’s rail- way mail service. It ended with plans being made for the lady to come out hereand become Mrs. Stowell. Let This Be A Lesson.

A ROUSER RATIFICATION MEET- ING 15— PLANNED: Followers of the Princeton Man Plan an Aggressive Fight. Yesterday a call was issued for an informal meeting at the court house of those republicans of the city and county who desire the nomination of Robert C. Dunn of Princeton for governor on the republieanticket,~ In. response to the call a number gathered at the auditor’s office last evening and effected a preliminary or- ganization of the Beltrami County Dunn club. W. A. Gould was unanimously elected chairman and F. W. Rhoda was also chosen secretary by a unanimous vote. An execu- tive -.committee of seven, includ- ing the chairman and secretary, was appointed, the additional members being Fred Sibley, of Solway,Joe Cartier, of Tenstrike, Geo. Davis, of Baudette,and H, J, Loud, of this ciy and John Mc- Dougald of Blackduclk, It was also agreed to hold a ratification meeting in the near future and it is hoped to have Dunn himself present at this meeting. The executive commit- tee has taken up the work today and it may safely be said that aothing will be left undone to carry Beltrami county for Dunn. It is understood tnat the Col- lins campaign in Beltrami county has been entrusted tothe manage- ment of L. H. Bailey, of this city, and while there is comparatively little sentiment for Collins in the county Mr: Bailey will endeavor to deliver the county to the St. Cloud man just the same. The Collins campaign in. the city and county has been * proceeding quietly for some time under Mr. Bailey’s management and will be continued unless the rumors of Collins’ withdrawal prove true. The Dunn supporters point to the fact that the natural trend of sentiment in the county is for the Princeton man; whose record for efficiency, his well known friend- liness to northern Minnesota and hismanyacts of personal kindness to the settlersof this section have made him the spontaneous can- didate of - the people of all this part of the state, and they are contident that the people of Bel- trami county are not unmindful of these things and that Dunn will carry the county with little or no trouble.
